Black Monday: NFL Coaches and Executives Carousel

[That Guy]

being a head coach is more than X's and O's, so i have no idea how you can say kyle's ready right now.

norv is a good OC with no leadership ability, and is a horrible head coach. being great at one job doesn't mean you'll be great at the other.

i do believe he should be in line for the job, but it's working the way it's set up now, so let's run with that. if there is a serious issue of kyle leaving, then you can reconsider, but i think he's safe for this year at least.

I tend to agree, and I've heard others say he's not quite ready yet either, as far as dealing with the media and being out there as the face of a team.

I don't think Kyle Shanahan is ready for a head coaching job. He's not always comfortable in front of the media and he still needs to mature.

Agree. Remember Kyle running down the hall berating the official early in the season? Cant do that. I think Kyle needs a little more time.

@BHA, Mike Shanny regarded as one of the best playcallers in the league when he was doing it. I wouldnt have a problem with him doing both.

Yeah, that was incredibly immature.

But to be fair, it was 14 games ago. Recent evidence suggests he's ready to take more on his plate.

He wouldn't be the first HC to berate an official and until they (officials) become perfect I'd hope to see more of the same.

I understand it's against the rules but WTF is up with a system where they can make a howlingly awful call, most recently the prolonged Cowboys snap that resulted in a TD, and the coaches have to meekly accept it?

I want a coach that fights for the call to be correct.

Yeah, but you cant chase the official off the field into the tunnel. You have to take the proper steps after the game with the league.

bad calls happen all the time, cant get hung up on it

Whilst I understand that there will always be the element of human error but I don't want a HC that shrugs like Norv used to.

On another topic, why isn't there more use of technology? RFID in the ball. Lasers on goal lines, so much that could be implemented.

NFL does not want to go to far because altho that would make for a more precise game, the NFL would lose some of its "influence" on the game.
Like this...

You mean to tell me they couldn't review that "upstairs"??? Of course they could have. NFL "official" excuse - The Ref looks at the clock and then the players so they get a extra little blip, give me a f$^#& break!!!

and computer refs

but seriously, why wouldn't the line judge have a wristwatch that's only function is to be synced with the play clock, at 0 it flashes red, that way he's not looking away from the ball.

There are solutions to some issues.
